Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Yaojin walked over and sat down.
"Why did you come here this time?"
Li Min asked directly.
These people would not come here to look for him for nothing. After all, they were not part of the group, and there was nothing to eat or drink here to entertain them.
Cheng Yaojin first said: "There is something good! Let the Duke of Wei say it!"
Hmm? Good thing? Why did Cheng Yaojin say it himself?
Fang Xuanling had to let Fang Xuanling say anything.
"It's like this. Your Majesty asked me to cooperate with Mr. Zili to inoculate the people of Chang'an and even the Tang Dynasty against smallpox."
Does this count as Li Shimin wanting to get involved in the vaccination matter?
"What good thing is this?"
Li Min said. This made the three of them a little embarrassed.
Wei Zheng said: "How can this not be a good thing? It is much better than some people obstructing it, right?"
He must be referring to Changsun Shunde and Wang Gui.
They are indeed a thorn in the side, but Li Min can handle it.
"No, this time His Majesty heard that you have controlled smallpox here, Long Yan is very happy!"
Cheng Yaojin said.
Whether Li Shimin is happy or not, what does it have to do with him?
"It's his business to be happy, what does it have to do with me?"
This made everyone even more depressed.
"If he is really serious, there is no need to send someone who can't make the decision to come to my place. I want to get money and have to go through his review!"
Li Min expressed his dissatisfaction.
Even if you make an IOU, it still needs to be done step by step.
This was really not done very well.
Fang Xuanling asked: "What's going on?"
Li Min then told what happened with the Minister of Hubu.
He also talked about what he needed.
Fang Xuanling patted her chest and said, "It won't happen this time. Now I am fully responsible for this matter. How much do you want, just ask and I will guarantee it!"
"Um?"
I didn’t expect that Fang Xuanling’s courage was quite good.
Wei Zheng also said: "I am not happy with this process issue. When I go back, I will take a good look at it! Your Majesty, please streamline the organization!"
Wei Zheng's words were very direct, and Li Shimin had to listen.
After all, he was also doing it for the Tang Dynasty, and what he said was very reasonable.
Wei Zheng was also one of the few who dared to confront Li Shimin.
What Li Shimin does has nothing to do with him.
What he cares about is whether the money can really come out?
"Okay, then I want one million taels! I want it now!"
One million taels!
This is not a small amount.
Fang Xuanling wanted to take back what she just said.
Cheng Yaojin suddenly asked: "The eight hundred thousand taels have been spent? Where did the money go?"
Eight hundred thousand taels may seem like a lot to others, and it was all gone in just a few days, but in Li Min's opinion, it's very little.
But when Cheng Yaojin said this, Li Min felt very unhappy, "Why don't I just swallow your money?"
"What are you talking about? I, Shengtang Group, have spent 300,000 taels, and the imperial court has only spent 800,000 taels! Isn't he suffering from heartache? How can a huge imperial court be heartbroken over such a small amount of money?"
Li Min expressed his confusion.
These words made the three of them embarrassed.
One million, or that little money?
Unexpectedly, in less than half a year, a sixth prince went from being penniless to being worth millions of taels. He is simply not a human being.
And he also recruited talents that everyone envied.
Xue Rengui, Yuan Tiangang, Sun Simiao and others were all conquered by him.
Not only that, they also heard that heroes and people with lofty ideals from all over the world were coming to Chang'an.
Even all the talented women wanted to come to Chang'an to meet Li Min.
His level of fame is probably second only to Li Shimin.
"I didn't mean that, I meant the money was too wasted!"
Cheng Yaojin immediately corrected himself.
Because it made Li Min angry.
Why didn't he think about it? He was facing tens of thousands of people.
Not hundreds of people, if hundreds of people really only have 800,000 taels.
If you have any doubts, you still have to talk.
"Uncle Cheng, why do I think you are saying that I am corrupt?"
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that, how could it be possible!"
Cheng Yaojin and Fang Xuanling both had financial dealings with him, so he didn't dare to say that.
"Mr. Zili, General Cheng is so straight-tempered, don't mind."
"I don't mind, but the money is also managed by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and they know better. Besides, there is no need for me to be greedy for the money. If I really want to be greedy, why should I risk my life to come here?"
"Yes, yes, I was wrong, I apologize! I was too quick to speak!"
Cheng Yaojin expressed that it was too difficult for him, all because he did not hold back his words.
Something to pay attention to in the future.
Li Min's attitude shocked the three of them.
Fang Xuanling asked weakly at this time:
"One million taels...what are you going to do with this money?"
I thought Li Min would get angry again, but unexpectedly, he turned out to be embarrassed.
"If these one million are not received today, it will be impossible for the people of Chang'an to be vaccinated within a short period of time. The longer the smallpox is delayed, the worse it will be!"
"I'm going to transfer it right now!"
Fang Xuanling said immediately.
But just as he was about to go out, he turned back.
"I don't know which aspect is more urgent, I can invest the money first!"
"Buy 30,000 cows first! Fifty thousand is best!"
Li Min said.
"ox?"
Fang Xuanling's expression was a little confused.
This made Li Min feel a little strange.
"What about the cow?"
"I remembered, 50,000 cattle were imported from the Turks a few days ago, and they are now in the cowshed in the west of the city!"
"Why did the Turks bring cattle?"
Li Min asked strangely.
At this time, Wei Zheng replaced Fang Xuanling and said: "Mr. Zili, you don't know that some time ago, His Majesty ordered a large-scale production of colored glaze, which was used for trade with the Turks."
Li Min heard this.
What Li Shimin did was really good.
He had only done business with the Turks before.
Unexpectedly, he actually stepped in secretly and came to trade with the Turks himself.
This guy has a really bad heart.
He just said, why didn't he hear any more news from the Turks?
"Oh? I don't know about this."
Fang Xuanling noticed Li Min's displeasure.
He quickly said: "We are not responsible for this. I only found out about it a few days ago! Otherwise, you would have known about it a long time ago!"
He seemed to be afraid of Li Min's anger.
explained immediately.
"That's all, he can do whatever he wants!"
Li Shimin's stab in the back is despising.
The three of them were a little embarrassed.
"Stop talking about this, you bring all the cows together!"
Li Min had no choice but to give the order.
He wanted to infect other cows quickly and then get the cowpox fluid from the cows. Before that, he could get some more from the previous cows.
"Okay, I'll go take care of it! I'll also allocate the money!"
After Fang Xuanling finished speaking, he left, but not long after, he came back again, his face full of shock.
